Title: whoops - it followed me home
Post by: grendel on July 01, 2011, 06:54

just picked up a second norlett rotovator on ebay, this one cost me twice as much as the first onee, but does seem more complete as it has the shield for the engine, at least I get virtually a whole machines worth of spare parts for my tenner.

well the latest news is I have managed to get number 2 running with a squirt of petrol down the plug hole, I found a manufacturers label on the second one its a Norlett Versatiller 1000 Mk V Garden Cultivator. all thats needed now is a new fuel tap and to make sure the carburettor works fine.
